ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
PLANT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
The Section of Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology at The
University of Texas at Austin invites applications for a tenure track
position in the general area of plant molecular biology. We are
interested in applicants who use molecular and biochemical approaches
to investigate fundamental problems in plant genetics, cell and
developmental biology and will consider applications at the Assistant
Professor level. Areas of particular interest include but are not
limited to pathway regulation, signal transduction, and RNA
interference. We seek an outstanding investigator who will build an
active research program and who will teach effectively at the
undergraduate and graduate levels. The successful candidate will
also be eligible for affiliation with the Institute for Cellular and
Molecular Biology, which provides state-of-the-art facilities and
supports an excellent graduate program. The molecular biology
community at UT Austin is in an exciting phase of growth with recent
hires in cell biology, developmental biology, genomics and related
areas.
Applications will be considered from December 1, 2006, until the
position is filled. Applicants should send their curriculum vitae,
statement of research and teaching interests, representative
publications, as well as arrange for three letters of recommendation
